Caption This 133

That's our youngest munchkin, Noah, tearing headlong toward the surf at the only speed he knows. I was trying to get an artsy beach umbrella perspective, and ended up, somewhat accidentally, with his sweet little form in the corner. Even when he's rendered in a tiny scale, he manages to delight anyone who sees him.

(What the hell am I talking about? Head over here for the Thematic Photographic summer extravaganza. Don't delay...fall's coming.)

Your turn: Please come up with a snappy caption for this shot. New to Caption This? Follow this yellow brick link for more info on how this insanity works.

About our last photo of my father-in-law's instrument panel: It's slowly turning into one of my favorite recent pics. There's an order to it that appeals to me. And it reminds me of how much fun I have with my family when we're running errands and doing the everyday things that everyday families do. So without further ado, our latest honorable menschens are:

Dana: "Idling away."

Melissa: "En-gauge-ing."

Robin: "Yes, we're there yet."

SPwriter, aka Steve Parolini, takes it with "Going nowhere fast." He's long been a supporter of Caption This. More importantly, he's an editor who's always been a supporter of anyone who has a literary question. His advice and guidance are legendary. And appreciated. Click here to learn more about him.

Kids and puppies often seem to have two speeds: Wide Open, and Fast Asleep. My oldest was like this when he was that age too. His kid brother not quite so much. It's a marvel to behold... and remember.
